      Why play games? Because they are fun, and a lot more besides.Following the rules...planning your
next move...acting as a team member...these are all"game"ideas that you will come across throughout
your life.
     Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as ropejumping and hideandseek.
Such games are entertaining and fun.But perhaps more importantly, they_translate_life_into_ exciting_
dramas that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives,
such as taking turns and cooperating (合作).
      Many children"s games have a practical side.Children around the world play games that prepare them
for work they will do as grownups.For instance,some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones,
which sharpens the handeye coordination(协调) needed in hunting.
     Many sports encourage national or local pride.The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games,
bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competition.People who watch the
event wave flags,knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country, not just the athlete who earned
it.For countries experiencing natural disasters or war,an Olympic win can mean so much.
     Sports are also an event that unites people.Soccer is the most popular sport in the world.People on
all continents play it-some for fun and some for a living.Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian soccer player,has
discovered a way to spread hope through soccer.He created a foundation to provide poor children with
not only soccer balls but also a promising future.
      Next time you play your favorite game or sport, think about why you enjoy it, what skills are needed,
and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life.

1. Through playing hideandseek, children are expected to learn to________.

A. be a team leader
B. obey the basic rules
C. act as a grownup
D. predict possible danger

2. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 most probably means that games can________.

A. describe life in an exciting way
B. turn reallife experiences into a play
C. make learning life skills more interesting
D. change people"s views of sporting events

3. According to the passage, why is winning Olympic medals so encouraging?

A. It inspires people"s deep love for the country.
B. It proves the exceptional skills of the winners.
C. It helps the country out of natural disasters.
D. It earns the winners fame and fortune.

4. Iribarne"s goal of forming the foundation is to________.

A. bring fun to poor kids
B. provide soccer balls for children
C. give poor kids a chance for a better life
D. appeal to soccer players to help poor kids

      One evening in February 2007, a student named Paula Ceely brought her car to a stop on a remote
road in Wales.She got out to open a metal gate that blocked her path.That"s when she heard the whistle
sounded by the driver of a train.Her Renault Clio was parked across a railway line.Seconds later, she
watched the train drag her car almost a kilometer down the railway tracks.
    Ceely"s near_miss made the news because she blamed it on her GPS device(导航仪). She had never
driven the route before.It was dark and raining heavily.Ceely was relying on her GPS, but it made no
mention of the crossing."I put my complete trust in the device and it led me right into the path of a
speeding train," she told the BBC.
     Who is to blame here? Rick Stevenson, who tells Ceely"s story in his book When Machines Fail Us,
points the finger at the limitations of technology.We put our faith in digital devices, he says, but our digital
helpers are too often not up to the job.They are filled with small problems.And it"s not just GPS devices:
Stevenson takes us on a tour of digital disasters involving everything from mobile phones to wireless
keyboards.
      The problem with his argument in the book is that it"s not clear why he only focuses on digital
technology, while there may be a number of other possible causes.A mapmaker might have left the
crossing off a paper map.Maybe we should blame Ceely for not paying attention.Perhaps the railway
authorities are at fault for poor signalling system.Or maybe someone has studied the relative dangers and
worked out that there really is something specific  wrong with  the  GPS  equipment.But  Stevenson
doesn"t say.
     It"s a problem that runs through the book.In a section on cars, Stevenson gives an account of the
advanced techniques that criminals use to defeat computerbased locking systems for cars.He offers two
independent sets of figures on car theft; both show a small rise in some parts of the country.He says that
once again not all new locks have proved reliable.Perhaps, but maybe it"s also due to the shortage of
policemen on the streets.Or changing social circumstances.Or some combination of these factors.
     The game between humans and their smart devices is amusing and complex.It is shaped by economics and psychology and the cultures we live in.Somewhere in the mix of those forces there may be a way for
a wiser use of technology.
       If there is such a way, it should involve more than just an awareness of the shortcomings of our
machines.After all, we have lived with them for thousands of years.They have probably been fooling us
for just as long.

1. What did Paula Ceely think was the cause of her accident?

A. She was not familiar with the road.
B. It was dark and raining heavily then.
C. The railway workers failed to give the signal.
D. Her GPS device didn"t tell her about the crossing.

2. The phrase"near miss" (Paragraph 2 ) can best be replaced by ________.

A. close hit                
B. heavy loss
C. narrow escape            
D. big mistake

3. Which of the following would Rick Stevenson most probably agree with?

A. Modern technology is what we can"t live without.
B. Digital technology often falls short of our expectation.
C. Digital devices are more reliable than they used to be.
D. GPS error is not the only cause for Ceely"s accident.

4. In the writer"s opinion, Stevenson"s argument is ________.

A. onesided                
B. reasonable
C. puzzling                  
D. wellbased
